What exactly is it doing?
It’s not pulling the hulls from the chamber.
When end I go and get them out they are not that tight. Not sure wether it’s a chamber issue or a bolt issue.
Common issue on these rifles. Basically the spring steel clip that holds the extractors in the bolt has gotten weak. What you need is #9 in this schematic at the link below. Some guys have had good luck doubling them up. You might also call Savage, they might just send you a couple replacements for free.

Note: This says for Lakefield, but it's the same exact design (Savage bought Lakefield in the 1990's).
Did you buy your Mark II's brand new or used?
I completely solved the same issue in my mk ll fvsr by adding a touch of extra lube to the bullets. Not 1 single failure to eject since I started and absolutely no detrimental side effects on accuracy. In fact, I would almost say it helped ever so slightly. No need for any extra cleaning. I have found only upsides to doing it. It takes a few seconds per 50 round box.Quote:

I had the same problem develop with my Mark II after about 750 rounds. Thank you for the info on fixing this. I ordered a few of the clips the other day. My rifle only exhibits this problem with CCI standard velocity which was a bummer since it seems to prefer this ammo. Does this crop up mainly with CCI rimfire ammo or does it occur across a variety brands?
Mine is mostly Aguila but every now and then CCI. I am now almost 500 rounds failure free.
